There is a Star, a Superstar and now a Megastar, serving the popular Helsinki-Tallinn service across the Gulf of Finland.
Fresh from the Meyer Turku yard (formerly STX Finland) in Turku, the 2,900-lane-metre eco-ropax newbuilding Megastar was set for its first “Tallink Shuttle” sailing this weekend from Helsinki for Estonian operator Tallink.
The 49,000-gt fast ferry, captained by Vahur Sostra, can carry up to 2,800 passengers at a service speed of 27 knots.
